iQOO 16 and iQOO Pad Ultra specifications are leaked on Weibo less than a day before their expected official unveiling. Tipster Digital Chat Station shares full spec sheets for both devices, prompting multiple outlets to publish details ahead of the launch.
According to the leak, the iQOO 16 features a 6.85-inch Samsung M16 “LEAD” OLED display with 2K+ resolution and a 165Hz refresh rate. It is said to use Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 chipset, alongside iQOO’s Q4 self-developed gaming chip. Camera information reported includes a 50MP main sensor (1/1.3-inch type), a 50MP ultrawide, and a 50MP periscope telephoto with 3x optical zoom, using Sony’s IMX882 sensor.
NDTV and GSMArena both point to the same origin of the information—Digital Chat Station’s posts on Weibo—and frame the news as pre-launch reporting of purported complete specifications. The outlets diverge in how much of the devices’ full hardware details they reproduce in their previews, but they agree that the leaks cover display and camera hardware for iQOO 16 and broader spec information for the tablet as well.
